StatsGuru Filters for Graham Yallop


Profile:

A technically correct and diligent batsman, Yallop generally batted near the top of the order for Australia and captained his country in seven Tests.

Yallop made his Test debut in 1975/76 against the West Indies. He missed selection the following season but became a core member of the Australian team in the late 1970s when more senior players joined World Series Cricket. Yallop performed well on a tough tour of the West Indies in 1977/78, scoring three half centuries, and was appointed captain for the home Ashes series the following summer. However, his side was inexperienced (Yallop himself was an eight-Test "veteran" before the series), and the tourists powered to a 5-1 victory under Mike Brearley's keen leadership.

Injuries and the Australian side's re-integration after WSC reduced Yallop's international appearances in the early-mid 1980s, and his decision to join rebel tours of South Africa from 1985 led to the end of his first-class career.

His talent, however, was on full display in the 1983/84 five-Test series against Pakistan, where he accumulated 554 runs at 92.33, including a marathon innings of 268 in the Fourth Test at the MCG. (Anthony Fallick, June 2002)
